How Not to Be a Best-Kept Secret

If your nonprofit is a best-kept secret, here is some practical advice on how to change that starting now:

Never repeat those words. 

Instead, provide facts. Be confident and say, “We change lives.” Follow this with a two-line story from your work. Give your listener something interesting to share. Make them part of your visibility and marketing team.

It’s part of your job.

It’s a great way to build energy.

It destroys the secret.

And besides, your actions make it true.
